I actually had one that used to call me daily - YUP DAILY! The thing is I'd be quite frank like - HEY Buddy, I don't have the type of traffic that warrants a call DAILY - but he didn't understand until I told him he'd be better off going to some boards to get new business (gave him my ref of course) heheheh
So I agree with Cleo and all the rest - I don't like calls and would only contact a person by phone if they asked for it. Not everyone works from the comfort of their home & with everyone in the home knowing what they do. If they have a day job, I'm sure their bosses don't like them getting calls from something they're doing on the side. It's just too touchy in my opinion and only something acceptable if it was asked by the affiliate.
